SL 1 Disc Centre-Lock Wheelsystem

Share

Giant's all new SL 1 Disc Centre-Lock Wheelsystem features lightweight alloy construction, weighing in at just 1870g (per full wheelsystem). With a modern 23mm wide and 30mm deep rim profile, SL 1 feature Giant alloy centrelock disc hubs and are clincher and tubeless compatible. SL 1 are built using Giant's Dynamic Balanced Lacing system - so spoke tensions balance out as riding forces are applied, resulting in a stiffer, more efficient wheel.

Highlights

Behind the performance of Giant on-road WheelSystems are a number of innovative technologies that, together, deliver superior efficiency, pinpoint control and engineered durability. Here’s a look at the technologies you’ll find in new high-performance on-road WheelSystems such as the SLR 0.

DYNAMIC BALANCED LACING

Engineered with more leverage on the “pulling” spoke and less on the “pushing” spoke, DBL technology maximizes the performance benefits of the rear wheel while it is in a dynamic state, delivering market-leading transmission stiffness for the highest level of efficiency.

OPTIMIZED ANCHOR POINT

Improved flange placement on the front hub and an optimized drive side flange on the rear hub increase spoke bracing angles, which boosts overall lateral stiffness. The result is stronger, stiffer wheels that track more accurately for better cornering performance and pinpoint control.

CUTTING-EDGE MANUFACTURING

Giant rims are produced in-house using Giant’s unrivaled engineering and manufacturingexpertise in carbon and high-strength alloys for improved strength and stiffness with loweroverall weight.

PRECISION HUB INTERNALS

TUBELESS COMPATIBLE

Tubeless Compatible rims provide the ability to run lower air pressure, allowing the tire to conform better to the road surface or terrain for improved traction, lower rolling resistance and a reduced risk of pinch flats.

OPTIMIZED AERODYNAMICS

Designed and engineered using CFD analysis to provide a high level of aerodynamicadvantage at various yaw angles.
